I have mine to renew also this month. I usually renew it early about 30 days before although considering Covid-19 Im not all that keen on visiting immigration with my wife who has a pre-existing condition.

Does anyone know what is the latest lead time one can attend for renewing an extension?

Is it 1 week before the extension expiry date that is recommended to allow for any potential issues?

On 26th March I was at CW at 05:15am. Doors to building opened at 05:50am. Doors to Immigration opened at 06:30am. I had queue ticket for "L" section timed 06:43am and was finished with the IO by 07:00am - but had to go directly back later once I had bank statement after the bank opened.

Was getting a bank letter a few hours after application the norm do you know, or just a lenient, sensible officer?

Im thinking of going to my local branch for a letter the day before application and hope that would be ok. The bank book would be updated on day of application (withdraw B100 from the atm) but the 2 figures wouldnt tally

As for 40K THB a month needed for the 1 year marriage extension, the other option being putting 400k in the bank for 2 months (as the OP is) prior to applying, they only want to see the latest two months with a sum of at least 40K deposited into my bank?

Can I ask if you're using Transferwise? Bangkok Bank and Transferwise can't see to solve this 40k a month in MY account issue for me
